Where most cafés, cocktail bars and clubs will use standard seating, the innovative few are switching to giant bean bags. Firstly they are an odd and very different sight in business; this is a very good thing because people like difference and businesses are constantly seeking it. An average cocktail bar can become very cool and comfortable; inevitably increasing public interest and therefore increasing revenue by this simple addition.

Using bean bag seating makes sense not just from an identity perspective but also for cleaning and maintenance reasons. Some fabric used in their making is water resistant and so not only will spills likely not seep through to the inside but they can be wiped off avoiding stickiness without fear of water soaking in. When it becomes time to give them a thorough clean, the innards are easily removed if an inner liner is used so that the entire exterior can be washed without hassle. Any opposition of the idea would probably say that the entire issue with spills can be avoided by using plastic or metal chairs. They would be quite right. They do ignore with their solution, however, that people, and more specifically people who have gone out to a bar to relax, like to be comfortable and would rather go somewhere that can offer them just that.

Bean-filled chairs are pretty much as comfortable a piece of furniture as it gets; where alternatively hard, metal or plastic chairs are not, voiding any benefit from ease of cleaning; if nothing is spilled on them, they won’t need cleaning!
Not only do they have these benefits but you may need to replace plastic, wooden or metal chairs as overuse will mean that legs snap or bend and back supports fall off. The same cannot be said for the alternative. The material used in their construction is tough and durable, tied together with nylon cord, which is incredibly strong. The likelihood of their breaking is minimal and with the other benefits it is no surprise that some businesses have already cottoned on.

Getting yourself the right chair could make all the difference to the health of your back and spine. Although avoiding a painful back is your responsibility by sitting correctly, these chairs can help you to find that right position. They are designed so that while you play the neutral curve of your spine is maintained and supported all the way from the very lower back up to the base of the neck.

Not only do they ensure correct posture but they are exceedingly comfortable for long stretches of gaming. If you normally sit on the edge of your bed, for example, you may notice that the lower back region will ache considerably after a while. A large pillow can be used to alleviate this slightly but will not make a great deal of difference. Sitting on a standard chair, as well, can cause substantial aches by the end of a session. You may notice that if it is a hard seated chair, cushioned or not, that after time your rear end goes to sleep and becomes a discomfort. Also, with standard chairs you may find that you get a muscular pain either side the length of the spine. A gaming chair, will solve these problems.

Though it may sound odd, gaming chairs are both soft and firm. The fabric and the stuffing have enough give to stop numbness of the legs and back-side but they are firm and set in position so as to give support to the lower to upper back in order to prevent aches and reduce the risk of long term damage. They are a must have for those who enjoy a good old sit down.

Retro-cool is something of a craze and always has been. Some might feel nostalgic at the sight or thought of something from their childhood like the wireless or hanging ball chairs. Although now the originals may be over the hill, the style most certainly is not. The new generation and most likely those before it get bored with conventional ‘modern’ furniture, accessories and appliances. For example, radios fresh off the production line could well have been made in the 1930′s and hanging ball chairs who’s first design was seen in 1968 are being sold in their droves as the cutting edge of ‘modern’ style. Old school is making contemporary look outdated.

Retro furniture and accessories are great for adding character to an otherwise flavourless room and alternatively adding some colour and life to a mundane one. Floral cushions and rugs are retro, providing a flashback of “flower power” and psychedelic art. These decorative objects with their colourful and ‘out-there’ designs can be matched to almost any room. For example, using the base colour of floral cushions or a retro bean bag to match wall colours can look great. Or where a very contemporary looking room with a lot of glass and white white walls can, without the addition of retro and colourful accessories, can look quite clinical. It goes without saying that the sterile look is not ideal for a cosy living room or bright kitchen.

Do not let your fear of change or want to keep up with the times deter you from using retro design in your home. Retro can be contemporary and also allows you to convey a unique style and love for quality design. Let it be said that “retro is most definitely cool!”.

Not only that but where the amount of seating in the room doesn’t need to be of utmost importance the bag can easily be moved; either to a different room or stored in a cupboard because they can be squashed to fit in a space. This makes them ideal for moving about the house, whether because of narrow or awkward corridors and passageways or simply because there is no difficulty getting them through a doorway. For this reason, a sofa bag can prove useful in a small bedroom. Obviously the smaller the room, the smaller the bag will have to be but again, whilst it is not in use, it can be stored in a cupboard or even under the bed. Also, since they are made of sturdy and durable material, they are ideal for smaller rooms where they may be moved around a lot; not to mention that they are more easily manoeuvred because they don’t have the heavy wooden frame of normal seating furniture.

The ideal seating solution for a small playroom. It’s unlikely that anyone would want to put large pieces of furniture in a room for a child. A smaller chair with no hard edges would be ideal, meaning there would be no risk of the child falling off, as with a stool or even a couch. Again another pro to using bean-filled seating in small playrooms is that if the kids want to move them around for better television viewing or game playing with their friends they can, and so won’t need to get you to lug a heavy piece of furniture frustratingly around a room too small for it.

If you are thinking that your room seems a little drab and colourless the simple solution is to use bright fabrics. If your room’s basis is towards warmer colours, for example the room is painted reds, yellows, browns, etc. then it could well benefit from the use of cream and ivory coloured fabrics. If you have a cooler or more neutral colour base then a clean bright white will provide the perfect finish.

For the more contemporary room with white walls or a lot of glass fashioned furniture don’t be afraid to be quite bold. Orange and purple fabrics are just two examples of many that can transform a sterile and bland looking living room into a a more lively one with much more character. Floral patterned fabrics can be used by simply matching one of the main colours of the cushion with your room; this will provide a great variety of colour to your room. This is an excellent way to show a little personal flare in the décor with coloured fabric seating (also a solution to those times where conventional seating is in short supply) or scatter cushions for your suite to create a new effect.

Since there are so many different fabric types to chose from, ranging from cottons to silks and furs, the choice is simply one of personal preference of which you think will go best with the rest of the room’s furnishings.

Soft furnishings such as Fatboy bean bags not only provide a great aesthetic to a room but are easy to swap around. You could dramatically change the look of a room from one month to the next to reflect your mood or even the time of year with little effort.
